ATA/356/1998•Victim aid: no moral damages after large accident insurance payments
ATA/356/1998Cour de justice / Verwaltungskammer09.06.1998Dismissed
Von Omnilex extrahiert
The victim challenged the refusal of moral-damages compensation under the Victim Assistance Act. The court held that the indemnifying authority was entitled to deny any such award because the victim had already received very substantial amounts, about CHF 120,000, from accident insurance. The appeal was dismissed and the refusal left in place.
Art. 14 LAVI; indemnity for moral harm may be refused where the victim has already obtained substantial payments from accident insurance. The authority retains discretion to deny a further victim-assistance award when, in light of prior insurance benefits, granting additional compensation would not be justified. Large accident-insurance payments may thus exclude a separate tort-moral indemnity under the victim-assistance regime (consid. unspecified).

Résumé
L'instance d'indemnisation est en droit de refuser à la victime toute indemnité pour tort moral en raison des montants importants que celle-ci a reçu de l'assureur-accident (CHF 120'222,65). La victime qui a reçu des montants importants (CHF 120'000.-) de son assureur-accident n'a pas droit à une indemnité pour tort moral.
Von Omnilex extrahiert
Whether the victim was entitled to moral-damages compensation under victim assistance despite substantial accident-insurance payments.
The authority could refuse any moral-damages indemnity because the victim had already received substantial sums from accident insurance.
The court accepted that the large accident-insurance benefits, around CHF 120,000, justified denying a separate moral-damages award under victim-assistance rules.
